Abstract BACKGROUND Cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL) is an agro‐industrial residue from cashew production that has gained relevance due to its possibilities to generate valuable by‐products. Although lab‐scale CNSL extraction has been studied in terms of yield and energy efficiency, the effect of industrial‐scale extraction and nut pre‐treatment methods ...

The Potential of Phytochemicals to Overcome Multidrug Resistance in Metastatic Melanoma
ABSTRACT Metastatic melanoma is the most lethal form of skin cancer, accounting for most skin cancer‐related deaths. Immunotherapies and targeted therapies have improved overall and progression‐free survival rates in metastatic melanoma patients. The effectiveness of these therapies decreases due to multidrug resistance (MDR).

Epoxidation of CNSL Mixture, Cardanol, and Cardol: A Sustainable Solution for PVC Plasticization
This study has its focus on the epoxidation of technical cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL), used as a PVC plasticizer. Epoxidation significantly enhanced plasticizing properties (increased elongation at break, decreased Young's modulus), along with improved thermal stability and chemical resistance.

A polyether glycol derived from cashew nutshell as a kinetic inhibitor for methane hydrate formation [PDF]
The polyether glycol derived from cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL) inhibited the formation of methane hydrate. The polymer proved to be more efficient than the polyvinyl pyrrolidone-poly(N-vinyl) caprolactam (PVP-PVCap) co-polymer under tested conditions (CH4, 1470 psi and 4 oC), being the latter one of the best commercially available hydrate inhibitors.

Biodegradable Polymer Coatings: Current State‐of‐the‐Art, Recent Advances, and Still Open Challenges
Classification of biodegradable coatings. Two examples of biodegradation curves referring to biodegradable polyurethane‐based and poly(ester amide)‐based coatings are also reported. ABSTRACT Polymer coatings represent both a key academic research topic and a viable and well‐established industry market.

ABSTRACT For the first time, a mixture of cardanol and cardol esters has been studied as plasticizers for PVC. From our previous work, it has been established that the favorable plasticizing properties of cardol for PVC materials exist. Hence, the utilization of cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL), a naturally occurring mixture of cardanol and cardol, as a ...
